[JCCL]

I’ll sit this one out for a bit but looking forward to hearing what you guys find.

... Guess in the first beta nothing new?

Looks like MacRumor's Juli Clover is all over it; she's dropped articles on two different features, so far. We'll probably need to keep an eye on the Front Page to keep up.

• iOS 26.3 Makes It Easier to Switch From iPhone to Android
• iOS 26.3 Adds Notification Forwarding Option for Third-Party Wearables

(Not exactly exciting... looks like those two are just EU DMA compliance stuff. Hopefully there's more to discover.)

One thing I noticed just now, with 26.2 on the 17 Pro the icon outline pop-in isn’t there anymore with battery saver mode.
Seems that this was changed during the 26.2 betas?

Do you think there’s a chance for a second beta next Monday or Tuesday?

Chance, sure there is always a chance. But it’s like a 5% chance based on past history. Most likely nothing further till after the first of the year.

There's a much better chance that beta 2 doesn't come until the week of January 5th.. There's a reason most folks tend to stay away from the betas (especially a 'beta 1') during the holidays 😉
